0:00 | 14:01

Do you ever wake up and feel like you didn't sleep at all?

Is the night just one long stretch of awareness?

Feel shocked when someone tells you that you were actually snoring?

This was my life for over 40 years.

I lived in this bizarre state of feeling half-asleep and half-awake, and no one could tell me what was going on.

No WONDER I thought my brain was completely broken.

But the mystery is a mystery no longer.

In this episode, I break down:

What paradoxical insomnia really is
Why hypersleep happens
The two key factors that influence sleep
How to navigate this twilight state
Why it won't last forever

Once you understand what's actually happening, this weird sleep state becomes a whole lot less scary.

Enjoy!
